Sometimes life is hard. Sometimes it knocks you down or makes you feel stuck with nowhere to go, no way to move. Those tough moments, when you feel like giving up, that's when you need to grind it out. That's when you need to roll your sleeves up and dig deeper to find your inner-most will and drive to move, get motivated, make progress, and build momentum. You've got to dig deep! 

A little Jocko influenced. But, we all need a kick in the pants sometimes.

For the last two and a half years, Jake Funk has been battling ACL injuries keeping him off of the football field.  The former Maryland Gatorade High School Player of the Year and record-setting running back has bided his time, been named a captain, and sitting atop the depth chart for the Maryland Terrapins football team.
